Chapter 212 Football Lottery
The 83-84 season of Serie A will start in August, and July happens to be a period for major clubs to run-in their teams. In the past few years, Nicholas' name has been widely circulated among Italian mafia families. For them, people like Nicholas have no business competition with them, and can also solve their financial problems. Simply the ideal partner for them. Therefore, when Nikolai announced that he wanted to invite a team to play a friendly match in Moscow, many mafia families involved in the football business regarded it as an opportunity to contact Nikolai.
In fact, at the beginning, Seryozha was optimistic about Naples controlled by the mafia, but after Yakov released the news, the last league champion Roma and Serie A giants Juventus are interested in participating in this competition, even AC Milan. interested in participating. This put Yakov in a difficult position. He called to ask what Seryozha meant. Seryozha finally decided to invite Juventus, AC Milan and Roma to Moscow to compete, but temporarily declined the rest of the teams. And Seryozha also decided to invite the domestic Moscow Sparta, Gorky Volga, and Leningrad Zenit three teams to participate.
After finalizing the cooperation intention, the Moscow Youth League Committee and the trade union disclosed the news to the outside world. All of a sudden, the citizens of Moscow rushed to the big surprise, and even the Moscow Municipal Party Committee expressed their support for this event. Because since the accident at the Moscow Lenin Stadium, Moscow has not held a major game for a long time.
Xie Liaosha let people from the Youth League Committee and the trade union be responsible for the preparations for the competition. He has no time to worry about these things now. The fundamental purpose of this event was to take the three insiders of the border guards away from the hands of the KGB. However, some people clearly saw an opportunity to make money, such as Hassan, who was the first to come to Seryozha after hearing the news. And the purpose of his coming is naturally to make money through this event.
Seryozha originally wanted to refuse, but then he thought that Hassan and Ivankov's subordinates had hardly done anything in the past six months. Then Seryozha changed his mind again.
"What are your plans?" Seryozha began to ask seriously.
"Of course it's an outside gambling game to make odds?" Hassan saw Sergey's attitude and thought it was right. Come over quickly and explain your plan.
"That's not acceptable, let alone the police will come to make trouble, even without the interference of the police, such a sneaky job won't do much, and you can only earn a small amount of money that won't make it to the table!" Seryozha objected.
"Boss, what do you mean?" Hassan asked curiously.
"If you want to do it, make a big one. I'll ask the Youth League Committee and the trade union to print some lottery tickets. How about you sell them?" Seriosha said.
"Ah? Is this okay?" Hassan felt a little puzzled.
"The advantage of doing this is that you can sell it on the street openly, without fear of the police harassing you. But you must sell it quickly, or it will be difficult to sell after the gust of wind!" Sergey Sha told Hassan road.
"Okay, boss, when do we start?" Hassan asked curiously.
"You go back first, I'll discuss it with Korolev from the trade union, and I can probably give you a letter of approval tomorrow!" Seryosha said to Hassan.
After sending Hassan away, Seryosha left the Youth League Committee. He went to the trade union by car to visit Korolev to discuss specific matters. Because Korolev is also an official in charge of a department, it is really not good for Seryozha to always call him to discuss things, and it is easy to make people feel dissatisfied.
After arriving at the trade union, Sergei went straight into Korolev's office. He opened the chair and sat in front of Korolev. Korolev raised his head to see him, and immediately stood up with a smile on his face.
"Don't be busy, I'll just sit down and leave!" Serezha said with a wave of his hand.
"What's the matter? I have something to do later?" Korolev asked.
"I have an idea, I want to communicate with you first, if you agree, I will tell my subordinates to start preparations,
Time is money! " said Seryozha.
"Time is money? This statement is interesting, but what is it?" Korolev asked curiously.
"It's about money. Didn't I hold a friendly football match? It's just a matter of making a lot of money through this incident, and it's a lucrative business!" Sergesha said.
"You were born in the wrong country. You should go to some corrupt capitalist country!" Korolev retorted jokingly.
"I want to get some football lottery tickets and take this opportunity to get some money! Look at the office building of your trade union. It is almost a dilapidated building. Get some money to repair it! If you are rich, I want to give money to the Youth League Committee and The young people in the labor union are improving housing conditions, after all we are responsible for the housing project of the workers’ new village, there is no reason for our own people to live in tube houses!” said Seriosha.
"Selling lottery tickets? How much does it cost?" Korolev asked cautiously. After all, the trade union is not as good as the Youth League Committee. Now the Youth League Committee is very rich under the management of Seryozha. It is simply the best paid unit in Moscow.
"Basically there is no need to spend money. For the second prize, I can go to the Gorky Automobile Factory to ask for a few cars. The first prize is a house in the worker's new village. The third prize is a sum of money earned from the lottery. Alright. And I have even thought about the money for printing the lottery, and let the printing factory of "Komsomolskaya Pravda" get it. How much will it cost!" Seryozha outlined his plan.
"You are really good. You should be the minister of commerce. The people who are busy with the relationship are others, and in the end the money is earned by your youth league committee. No, we have to mix it up this time. I'll go find "" According to the relationship of the Labor Newspaper, print more. See if it can be published in Leningrad!" Korolev said.
The two settled the matter in a few words, and Sergey contacted Gorky Automobile Manufacturing in Korolev's office, and an acquaintance of the "Komsomolskaya Pravda". Both agreed to pay after delivery. The Gorky Automobile Factory even said that they would get the Volga that had just rolled off the assembly line on the train and send it to Moscow in the afternoon. And "Komsomolskaya Pravda" simply decided to do it for Seryozha for free, and it didn't cost much anyway.
Sergesha thought it would take some time, but who knew it would be done so quickly, so he asked Hassan to go to the printing factory of "Komsomolskaya Pravda" to wait for the delivery. " will publish this football lottery game introduction in the supplement, and Hassan will be busy by then.
